Bilson and Richard C. Marston, eds. Volume Publisher: University of Chicago Press Volume ISBN: 0-226-05096-3 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/bils84-1 Publication Date: 1984 Chapter Title: The International Role of the Dollar: Theory and Prospect Chapter Author: Paul R. Krugman Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c6838 Chapter pages in book: (p. 261 - 278) 8 The International Role of the Dollar: Theory and Prospect Paul Krugman 8.1 Introduction What do people use as money? In studying national economies we usually do not worry about this question very much, assuming that governments are able to create fiat monies and enforce their acceptance. There are some prob- lems, such as the role of inside monies and near monies, and the cases of “dollarization” (as in Israel) where the national currency is partly sup- planted by some other currency. But these problems are the exception rather than the rule, and theorists are generally comfortable with the idea of assum- ing a demand for M/P without having to explain why it is these pieces of paper, rather than something else, which appear in the numerator. When we study the international economy, however, we can no longer avoid the question. International economic activity, like domestic activity, requires the use of money, and the same forces which lead to convergence on a single domestic money lead the world to converge on a limited number of international monies.
